Call made for women small business owners
The Ministry of Youth, Social Development and Seniors has made a pledge to empower overlooked business owners through a collaboration with Caribbean countries.
The Caribbean and the Bermuda Economic Development Corporation, facilitated by the United Nations Women Multi-Country Office, is looking for business for providers and entrepreneurs throughout Bermuda.
The initiative is part of the programme Building Back Equal through Innovative Financing for Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment for Bahamas and Bermuda, aimed at supporting businesses led by women, young people and those with disabilities.
A request for quotations was issued for businesses that could offer accounting, financial services, digitalisation and e-commerce to support these small or medium-sized business in Bermuda.
The ministry has also called for applications from women, young people or people with disabilities who owned a small or medium-sized business.
The request for quotations and applications are both due by August 18.
